All jokes aside, you can legally import one pet per "Z" type visa. Thus if you and your partner are going, you can bring two furry friends. Do not that China has strict quarantine rules, and your dogs will have to spend up to 30 days in a kennel somewhere, in most likely, poor conditions.
Otherwise though, the process is pretty simple, you just get an International Health Certificate and a Vaccination Certificate (rabies vaccination must be had within 1 year of arrival date) from your vet in due time periods. I guess the complicated part comes when you have to find a pet-friendly air carrier.
Have a look at the ExpatARrivals.com Shipping to China page, and also I would recommend contacting a Pet Relocation service provider if you're concerned about the hassle, but adamant about bringing fido or rex with - a good one is actually PetRelocation.com.
